Jacksn, Director E•.c_o=uPEs Public Wnr s Den rtment The Roberto Clemente Park -NET Office Remodeling (Second Bidding) Project, B-6354, provides miscellaneous improvements to the Roberto Clemente Park Recreation Building and renovations to the Wynwood/Edgewater NET office. The project has encountered numerous delays due to (1) the first awarded contractor was unable to complete the initial exterior door replacements as bid; (2) the project was re -scoped to include renovation work in the NET Office and was formally re -bid; (3) the first bidding resulted in irregularities with the bids submitted and was re -bid; and (4) the second formal bidding low bid amount exceeded the available funding. The aforementioned events have seriously delayed the start of construction. It is most important to quickly get the construction started to address the building deficiencies and to complete the NET Office renovations to facilitate the continuation of NET services. The low bidder is BRC Construction Co., Inc., with a bid amount of $54,859.50. Funds are available for this project award from CIP No. 331056 and Account No. 145001.251113.6.670. This request is for your approval to award the project to the low bidder and to proceed with construction on an EMERGENCY basis, This finding of an Emergency will be placed on the next available Commission agenda for ratification and approval by the City Commission.
